300 posts of everybody loving their Mini iPhones, that is great. I loved this Mini too, helluva lot of fun to drive. Mine was a Mini Cooper S 1250.

Post when you receive it. You’re going to love it. I’ve been really enjoying using mine as well. Black 128gb variant.
Got here today. One hour after receiving it I am up and running with all data and apps transferred from my other iPhone. First impression is that I am VERY impressed and I think it's now my favorite iPhone. Of course in a month who knows but today, this is a great iPhone.

Another convert to the mini cult of happiness. :D Welcome.

Awesome!! Congrats on the new mini. It is definitely a great phone and has been my favorite over the past month or so.
 
Very happy with my 128GB White mini. Pre-ordered at earliest opportunity.

Yes. Waited for so long that I was in shock when it was released. Purchased it (Blue 64GB) on launch day and I've never looked back. Honestly idk what else anyone could want in a phone. Maybe LIDAR, but honestly I just love it and don't want to look for faults, because there just aren't any. It's a pure pleasure
 
Couldn't wait for the Mini! Had to move on from my iPhone 7 Jet Black but the new SE wasn't out, so I bought the 11. It was too big! I hated every second I had to use it! Finally got the 12 Mini 128gb and for the first time ever, got the white one. Always bought black (close to black). I love the mini, its so nice to hold and use. The white colour is very pleasing this time around. I get excited every time I need to use my phone and curse the 11!

128 Black here as well - but I must admit: It could have been a bit wider for typing. And my wife´s regular 12 is more immersive when used for video, photos and browsing. But throughout the day the mini is a lot more comfortable in my front pocket.
Can always buy a 12 pro max to use during the night. 😊😂

I caved and got one a couple of weeks ago.. 128 GB mint green. The Apple watch unlock feature is a blessing in lieu of touch ID but i hope it's included in the 13 mini.
 
I got a black 128GB mini just after launch day. It replaced an original SE, which replaced a 5. I still think the 5/5S/SE is the most coherent design of all iPhones, but most people clearly prefer them larger. One of the reasons I got the mini was the return to the squared edges, though it's not quite as good in the larger form.

I do like the mini, but I find the battery life disappointing. When my SE was new I could go 4-5 days between charges if I wasn't doing much with it, but the mini is lucky to get 3 days. It does a lot more of course, but I am not looking forward to having it once the battery wears down a bit.

Jeeez 3 days on the mini and 5 days on the se! Wow you must barely use your phone lol. I got one day on my 12 max when I had it. I propose we crowd fund a 12 pro max to this man or woman and test whether they can get 1 month on a single charge 😂
 
How is the red mini? I might trade my mini and I’d like a different color. But red might be harder to match for cases? I’ve had a black that I returned and settled on a blue mini.
 
I hope Apple offers a Tangerine color with this year's mini. :) It would go nicely with my Blue mini.
An orange-y color would certainly be cool, and unique. I’d kind of love to see a bright butterscotch type color; Good cross between yellow and orange.
 
Two weeks in, I am absolutely loving it. I had a moments doubt during the first couple of days thinking that the smaller screen is straining my eyes, but it turned out to be related to something else.

I love the size, first phone since the 5 that I can just leave in my pocket at the gym and don't have to carry it in my hand from station to station. So easy to fire off a text one handed while walking around, change track etc. It's so liberating having such a small device without sacrificing anything in terms of performance or features.

I find matching much harder and a bit more boring than having different colours on a case and phone. Maybe something green to go with the red?

I had a hard time matching my blue with the apple leather cases. The leather blue didn’t really match so I ended up with black.
Agree green would look good with red.
